Status Updates From This Gilded Abyss: The Tita...

Realizing now this book has a sequel🫪🤯

I hope it's explained at some point why this all started going to shit at once, and never before

This is making me want to re-read Chronicles of Alsea so bad oml

Dang I think this might be my fav Rebecca Thorne book it’s intense and super interesting so far

The romance wasn’t convincing imo. Enemies to lovers AND second chance romance w hardly any transition or a mature conversation addressing how they’ve hurt each other & how they’ll repair/grow through it. Admittedly, they have emergencies going on, but still. Sex isn’t a magical solution to make their dynamic work! I wasn’t fond of it. All in all, I didn’t hate this book, but it didn’t amaze me either

Overall, this was ok. A bleak ending in preparation for book 2, which I don’t think I’ll pick up. I was more interested in the progression of the story towards the end, but not invested in the characters enough to continue the series. Not to mention, all the characters are dead except the main 2 love interests, although I wouldn’t be surprised if somehow, Leon returned (à la Palpatine).
